I Love My Daughter's Teacher!

When I dropped off my daughter at school this morning, I had to go into the cafeteria to drop off her menu selections for the week to supplement the lunches I send from home, and I stopped in to say hi to her teacher... Well, she said "oh just the person I wanted to talk to!" She had a empty bag of Bob's Red Mill gluten-free Chocolate Chip Cookie mix and said that on Friday one of the other girls mom is bringing cookies for everyone, so rather than ask me to make some for her, she picked up the mix at Kroger and made them herself and put them in the freezer until Friday. (She's also trying the gluten-free diet herself to see if it helps her symptoms and she has a grown son with multiple food allergies including wheat).

Because she has a grown son with allergies, I know I can trust her to be aware of cc issues and everything, she even checked to make sure the vanilla she used was gluten-free. And come Friday when they have their party, she said that she and my daughter will have their gluten-free cookies together!

How amazing is this???!!!!

I hope she enjoys the cookies too! I'm just so thrilled that her teacher makes the extra effort to make her feel included and safe. She's already been awesome about letting me know when they had won a pizza party so that I could bring in a hot fresh gluten-free pizza for my daughter as well, and she always asks before planning an event with food. And we are only a few months into the school year!

That's great, Nini! I love Carleigh's teacher too. They are going to make a friendship soup in the crockpot at the end of the month. She wants everyone to bring a cup of veggies or something to contribute. She emailed me today for input on how to keep her safe.

      Self Diagnosed avoiding gluten 7 months later (Not tested due to eating gluten to test) update and question on soy

      A lot of people erroneously think soy is a problem for people needing to be on a gluten-free diet. Trents' comment above speaks to some celiacs also having a sensitivity to soy, but this is just some of them. However, soy sauce is something anyone following a gluten-free diet should be wary of. Many soy sauces contain wheat, which is where the soy/gluten...

      I have many of those same CMP irregularities from time to time, with the exception that my potassium is always normal. What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part....

      Not sure what you mean by "soy being like gluten". Soy does not cause a celiac reaction. However, soy is one of the foods that many celiacs don't tolerate well for other reasons. Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one...

Trents' comment above speaks to some celiacs also having a sensitivity to soy, but this is just some of them.  However, soy sauce is something anyone following a gluten-free diet should be wary of. Many soy sauces contain wheat, which is where the soy/gluten confusion comes into play. There is gluten-free soy sauce available, just read labels to be sure. I use San-J Tamari, which is gluten-free but does contain soy, in place of regular soy sauce.

What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part. It depends on the particular parameter (some are more important than others) and it depends on how far out of range it is. Docs also look for trends over time as opposed to isolated snapshots of this or that being out of spec at any given time. Our body chemistry is a dynamic entity.

Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one of them or all of them. It just means it's common. You may not have a problem with soy at all. Celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten that creates inflammation in the small bowel lining that, over time, damages that lining.
